  11. With all this talk of IBM reorganization and mainframes being
  12. dead, I'm wondering if IBM's PL/S is now a dead language?
  13.  
  14. I haven't seen IBM trying to sell it as a product, which
  15. considering the shape their in, I'd figure they would try to sell
  16. anything they had, so perhaps it's effectively dead and it's
  17. internal use to be minimized.
  18.  
  19. PS: How low does IBM's stock have to get for AT&T to buy them?
